Thanks for the resources.( though my listening skill is not enough to
understand the speech...)

Another question:
If I have two jquery.animation like below:
$(".div1").animate({width:10},"slow");
$(".div2").animate({width:1000},"slow");
div1 and div2 will change their width "synchronously", but doesn't
javascript have only one thread?
How do jquery implement it?
